Jewellery is a good and wise buy among visitors to Turkey because it is relatively cheaper than the rest of the world and even could be considered a kind of investment. Less costly handcraftsmanship makes prices lower compared to many countries, even if the gold and precious stones prices are the same around the world. Thanks to their old empire roots, Turks have a great taste of design in jewellery because especially Ottoman sultans saw jewellery as an art and started to learn how to make it from early childhood. That’s why it is still popular among Turks to have custom made jewellery as a sign of royalty. It is also possible to design your own jewellery and have it handmade for you at a reasonable price in most big jewellery centres located nearby Ephesus. If you should be short on time, these centres can send your customized jewellery with insurance to your home address abroad.
